Two Glulx Virtual Machine engines, Interpreters

Glulxe is considered the reference interpreter, and Git came along later with a focus on performance on more limited handheld devices.

So far, my experience has found both to be interchangeable in most cases. However, Glulxe has compiler conditions to support Superglús superglus.com stories. It's great to have choices that are being maintained by the community.
